Observe Checklist - BMW S 1000RR Rider's Manual

Catalytic converter
If misfiring causes unburned fuel
to enter the catalytic converter,
there is a danger of overheating
and damage.
For this reason, observe the fol-
lowing points:
Do not run the fuel tank dry
Do not run the engine with the
spark-plug cap removed
Stop engine immediately if it
misfires
Use unleaded fuel only
Comply with all specified main-
tenance intervals
ATTENTION
Unburned fuel in the catalytic
converter.
Damage to the catalytic con-
verter.
Note the points listed for
protection of the catalytic
converter.
Danger of overheating
ATTENTION
Engine idling for a lengthy
period while at a standstill.
Overheating caused by insuffi-
cient cooling. In extreme cases,
the motorcycle could catch fire.
Do not allow the engine to idle
unnecessarily.
After starting, ride off
immediately.
Modifications
ATTENTION
Modifications to the motor-
cycle (e.g. engine control
unit, throttle valves, clutch).
Damage to the affected parts,
failure of safety-relevant func-
tions. Damage caused by modifi-
cations invalidates the warranty.
Do not make any
modifications.
